Mounain Spirit Guiding

Ski the Vallee Blanche - Aiguille du Midi (3842m)

Right off the Aiguille Du Midi we ski a 2800m vertical drop, back down to Chamonix. Amazing ice landscapes on the glaciers open up a world of variety, while skiing over wide open slopes.
The classic Vallee Blanche route cruises 20km down the Mer de Glace through stunning views of some of the highest peaks in Europe.
Several steeper routes are possible to ski from the highest lift in Europe (3842m), each of them varying in difficulty.
All routes are unmarked and unpatrolled and lead over glaciers with potential risk of crevasse danger.

Best time: from February to mid April depending on snow cover.

Ability: You need to be able to ski on black pistes safely. It is an off-piste run, conditions vary from day to day.

In case you are not sure if you are able to ski the Vallee Blanche, take an extra day with us and we will work on your skiing technique and decide together whether it is possible or not.

Guided day on the Vallee Blanche

The lift takes us up to Aiguille du Midi, we descend the famous snow ridge and put on the skis. Depending on your level of skiing we ski either the classic route or a more technical variation of it. If there is time we explore further off piste opportunities in the afternoon.
The Vallee Blanche can also be descended from the Hellbronner cable car station.
